[0027] It should be noted that the following detailed descriptions are illustrative and intended to provide further explanation of the present invention. Unless otherwise specified, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meanings as those commonly understood by those skilled in the art to which the present invention belongs.
[0028] The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. This embodiment discloses a multifunctional torque standard device, such as Figure 1 As shown, it includes a horizontal platform 1, a reducer 2 is fixedly arranged on one side of the platform 1, and an input end of the reducer 2 is connected to a servo motor 3.
[0029] like Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 3 As shown, on the side of the reducer 2 away from the servo motor 3, two parallel tracks 4 are fixedly installed on the platform 1. The tracks 4 are parallel to the output shaft of the reducer 2. There are multiple support seats on the tracks 4. The bottom of each support seat is fixedly connected to two sliders. The two sliders are used in conjunction with the tracks. The distance between the sliders is equal to the distance between the tracks. Figure 1 As shown, the cross-section of the track 4 is in the shape of an "I", and a groove is provided on the slider 41, and protrusions are provided on both sides of the groove, which can engage the slider 41 on the track 4, thereby ensuring that the support seat can move horizontally along the track without offset.
[0030] It is understandable that a bolt hole can also be opened on the top of the slider 41. When the support seat moves to the desired position, a bolt is screwed into the bolt hole of the slider 41 so that the bolt presses against the track 4, thereby fixing the support seat in the current position.
[0031] In this embodiment, three support bases are provided. The first support base 5 is located adjacent to the reducer 2 and is fixed to the track 4 according to the length of the output shaft of the reducer 2. A first bearing 12 is provided on the first support base 5, and the center of the first bearing 12 is coaxial with the output shaft of the reducer 2. The output shaft of the reducer 2 passes through the first bearing 12, and the end of the output shaft of the reducer 2 is connected to the first standard torque sensor 9 via the first coupling 8, so that the first standard torque sensor 9 rotates coaxially with the output shaft of the reducer 2.
[0032] like Figure 1 As shown, the stand 1 is also provided with a second support seat 6, and a second bearing 13 is provided on the second support seat 6. The center of the second bearing 13 is coaxial with the output shaft of the reducer 2. Two reaction baffles 61 are also provided on the second support seat 6. The reaction baffles 61 are located below the second bearing 13, and the two reaction baffles 61 are symmetrically distributed relative to the second bearing 13.
[0033] like Figure 1 As shown, a third support base 7 is provided to the right of the second support base 6. A second coupling 10 is fixedly mounted on the third support base 7. The second coupling 10 is coaxial with the output shaft of the reducer 2. The second coupling 10 is connected to one end of a second standard torque sensor 11, the other end of which passes through a second bearing 13. The difference between the first and second standard torque sensors is that the second standard torque sensor has a larger range, while the first standard torque sensor has a smaller range. In this embodiment, the range of the first standard torque sensor is 5 kNm, and the range of the second standard torque sensor is 20 kNm. It is understood that the ranges of the first and second standard torque sensors can be changed to different specifications based on actual needs. For example, the second standard torque sensor can use a torque sensor with a larger range, while the first standard torque sensor can use a torque sensor with a smaller range. The overall fuselage frame and related components are designed to ensure an effective safety factor, and the couplings are all based on existing technology.
[0034] In this embodiment, the first bearing and the second bearing are used to withstand the bending moment generated by the device being tested during the testing process. Ball bearings can be used, and their size is selected according to actual conditions, because the friction between the inner and outer rings of the ball bearings will not have a substantial impact on the measurement results, and they are economical and more common. In other embodiments, air bearings can be used.
[0035] In this embodiment, the two couplings, two standard torque sensors and the output shaft of the reducer are kept coaxial in order to ensure coaxiality and offset the measurement error caused by structural deformation.
[0036] Testing should be conducted in accordance with the requirements of JJF1610-2017, JJG707-2014, and JJG797-2013. The test should be conducted at a room temperature of (20±5)°C and a relative humidity of no more than 80%. During the test, the room temperature should not fluctuate by more than 2°C. During the test, there should be no vibration, impact, electromagnetic fields, or other interference sources that may affect the test results.
[0037] Before testing, the equipment to be tested must be placed under the calibration conditions for a sufficient period of time to ensure that its temperature is the same as and stable under the calibration conditions. The recommended placement time is as required by the product manual or no less than 8 hours.
[0038] During calibration, control the servo motor to load or unload the device under test and the standard torque sensor slowly and smoothly, avoiding impact or overloading. Load the device under test at least three times, maintaining the load for 30 seconds to 1 minute. Record and compare the readings of the device under test and the standard torque sensor. After each preload is completely removed, wait at least 30 seconds for the indicator to return to zero. Check the indicator's return to zero and readjust the zero point as needed.
[0039] Working principle:
[0040] like Figure 3 As shown, when the hydraulic wrench 14 is being tested, the second support seat 6 and the third support seat 7 are installed, and one end of the second standard torque sensor 11 is installed on the second coupling so that the second standard torque sensor 11 is located between the second and third support seats, and the hydraulic wrench 14 is connected to the other end of the second standard torque sensor 11; since the hydraulic wrench has its own hydraulic pump station, it can provide pressure. When the wrench head is pushed to rotate, its reaction arm can press the reaction baffle 61 to offset the reaction force, so that the second standard torque sensor 11 can collect data from the hydraulic wrench 14. The operation is repeated several times to complete the test and perform calibration.
[0041] like Figure 1 As shown, when testing the torque multiplier 15, the output of the torque multiplier 15 is first connected to the second standard torque sensor 11, and then the input is connected to the first standard torque sensor 9. The servo motor then rotates, and the output of the reducer generates input torque at the input of the torque multiplier 15. The reaction arm of the torque multiplier 15 presses against the reaction baffle 61, while the output continues to rotate to generate output torque. The first standard torque sensor collects the input torque, while the second standard torque sensor collects the output torque. The output torque value is divided by the input torque value to obtain the multiplier's amplification factor K for calibration.
[0042] When the torque meter is being tested, the second support seat 6 is removed, and the second standard torque sensor is removed, and the torque meter is connected to the first standard torque sensor and the second coupling; then the servo motor rotates, and the output end of the reducer generates input torque at the torque meter being tested; the values of the first standard torque sensor and the torque meter being tested are compared to calibrate the torque meter being tested.
[0043] When testing an electric pneumatic torque wrench with a range greater than 2000Nm, because it is expensive and easily damaged, you can first connect a simulated bolt and then connect a second standard torque sensor with a torque sensor of 20000Nm or greater.
[0044] It can be understood that the first support seat is fixed on the track and has a fixed position, while the second support seat and the third support seat are movable relative to the first support seat, so that they can be adjusted according to the type and size of the object to be detected, thereby enabling this standard device to realize torque calibration for detection objects of different types and sizes.
[0045] It can also be understood that when the standard torque sensor is connected to the object to be detected, since the object to be detected is such as a wrench, the interface and the top shape of the screw are consistent, both are polygonal, generally hexagonal, so in this embodiment, an adapter of corresponding specifications and sizes is used for connection to ensure that the standard torque sensor and the object to be detected rotate synchronously.
[0046] It is understandable that the servo motor can be controlled to rotate by three methods in the prior art: computer automatic control, electronic hand bell and manual button switch. This embodiment does not improve the control method of the servo motor and will not be described in detail.
[0047] This embodiment controls the servo motor and reducer to achieve forward and reverse bidirectional detection. The servo motor power is selected based on the configured reducer. The servo motor's rotation is controlled through three modes: computer automatic control, electronic handwheel, and manual keystroke. The servo motor drives the reducer, which is axially connected to the standard torque sensor and the object being detected in turn via precision couplings. The entire process achieves closed-loop control, with a high degree of automated control, good system repeatability, and high data accuracy, while also avoiding human errors caused by manual operation.
[0048] Compared to a single calibration / standard device, this embodiment can detect a variety of different types of detection objects and can adapt to detection objects of different sizes.
[0049] Although the above description of the specific implementation methods of the present invention is combined with the accompanying drawings, it does not limit the scope of protection of the present invention. Technical personnel in the relevant field should understand that on the basis of the technical solution of the present invention, various modifications or deformations that can be made by technical personnel in this field without creative work are still within the scope of protection of the present invention.
